Curly87 Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Hey folks! Im currently in my final year of university, and would like to ask if you wouldnt mind sparing a few minutes to fill out a very quick survey for me? There are only around eight questions and most of those are multiple choice! At the moment I am taking a module where we have to design a new product or alter an existing one. The area that I am looking at is the Cordless Tool market, so just trying to do some market research around the use of cordless tools. Particularly looking to see if there is an issue regarding the weight of the tool when being used, thinking along the lines of when working above your head and so on. So if you use a cordless tool I would very much like your input! There are two different surveys, The first one is for Tradesmen who use cordless tools as part of your profession: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/G5XLPXP Then this survey is for people who use a cordless drill for DIY in the domestic market: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/G5H59WG They are separated just so I can compare the results, however the surveys are pretty much identical. Thanks in advance, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

windrush Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Done. But it didn't have the question I was wanting to answer. i.e. How many cordless drills do you own where the batteries are knackered but too expensive to replace? 4.

Heard a lot of people complain about that, but at the moment the idea that I am thinking about is a accessory for a cordless tool. However thinking about it, say for a tenner would u buy a product that turned a cordless drill into a corded one just so u could still keep using? As a much cheaper alternative than buying a battery, or would u just splash out on a new battery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No and it's usually cheaper to buy a complete new setup including two new batteries than one replacement battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curly87 Posted January 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 And cheers for everyone who has done the survey so far, grand help!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guss109 Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 No and it's usually cheaper to buy a complete new setup including two new batteries than one replacement battery. All depends on if your trade and have a whole set of tools that use the same battery. I know i would rather spend £80 on a new battery than pay £650 + vat on a new set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonD Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Done. The battery thing is why everything i have is 14.4v De Walt so have plenty kicking about between tools, the one exception is a 12v De Walt cordless i have but that was worth the extra tenner to get it free with the hammer drill Jon.

Curly87 Posted January 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Jon are all DeWalt 14.4V stuff interchangeable then? And is it only the 14.4V batts that are all the same, or does that apply across the whole of their battery V range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
